Sodium chloride, sulfur, and methyl alcohol are insoluble in petroleum ether due to their polar nature and the non-polar characteristics of petroleum ether. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound, while sulfur is a nonpolar solid, and methyl alcohol, although polar, has a hydroxyl group that does not interact favorably with the predominantly nonpolar hydrocarbon chains of petroleum ether. This mismatch in polarity leads to poor solubility for these substances in petroleum ether.
What else can I help you with?
Why is sulphur insoluble in both water and petroleum ether?
Sulfur is insoluble in water because it is a nonpolar molecule, while water is a polar solvent. In the case of petroleum ether, sulfur is also insoluble because it does not have a compatible polarity or chemical structure with the nonpolar solvent. This lack of solubility is due to the differences in the intermolecular forces between sulfur and the two solvents.

How do you separate ammonium chloride and sulphur from its mixture?
Ammonium chloride is soluble in water, sulphur isn't. So mix the mixture with water and filter out the sulphur. Now evaporate the filtrate to obtain the ammonium chloride and permit the sulphur to dry.
What happens when water combines with sulfur?
When water combines with sulfur, sulfur dioxide gas can be produced. This reaction is often slow unless a catalyst is present. Sulfur dioxide is a colorless gas with a sharp and pungent odor, and it can contribute to air pollution.
What is the difference between sulphur and vat dye?
sulphur dye is made by sulphur linkage &vat dye made by ketone linkage. thus sometimes sulphur dye are used for basic dye in respect to mordant. that is called topping. when we shall break insoluble vat dye,then we shall get pigment.
